You can't be serious. Christianity is the most detrimental religion that was ever created. No other religion will ever come close to its body count. People who identify as a members of this religion are even responsible for the spread of the modern day boogeyman, "radical Islam."
Europeans subjected POC to borders, religion, central banks, trade deals, disease, capitalism, further divisive identities etc....it goes on and on. Yet migrants who are victims of these imperialist policies are the problem? Enough of this right wing ethno-nationalist bullshit.
I think jcpro was trying — not very successfully — to excuse Europeans by saying that's how they always behaved. Equally brutal at home or abroad.
What is the difference between a cult and a religion? A cult kills you or threatens to kill you if you leave the cult - ie islam, islam is responsible for 270 million deaths since mohammad started the cult - Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot combined did not even come close to that number.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
Christianity was founded/inspired by a peacenik
Islam was founded by a warlord who killed and conquered people.
And THE thing to remember about every one of the big religions is that they've all engaged in mass slaughter in the name of their belief, and all of them have used their belief as the excuse to kill others of the same faith but slightly different beliefs, not just apostates and non-believers. apostates. None of them can claim any deserved superiority over any of the others.
That's the plain history.
And they almost immediately turned his preaching into an excuse to conquer and destroy.
There was a vigil for Jonathan Davis, who was shot in the head and heart and died, to-night. No suspects arrested so far despite many witnesses present during the shooting.
Meanwhile Renu Mandhane and the OHRC's main concern is to investigate the police.

Every corner of the planet where Christianity spread, great civilizations arose. Look around you.
We know European history (yes, the Vikings were horrible) but we know little of what was happening in Africa and the Americas (before the arrival of the white man). Since we are making comparisons, were they any better than the Euros?
The Mongols were horrible and they weren't Europeans. Two of the greatest tragedies of human history were the conquests (guess by whom) of Persia, Egypt and a large portion of India.
The history of Europe is the history of conquest, wars, slavery and unimaginable suffering throughout its recorded history. And that's just inter European history that does not include the Asian invaders or the colonial incursions. You just don't know much about it.
It's not an excuse. It's an historical fact. It's also an historical fact that Europeans don't hold a monopoly on brutality. All peoples are just as capable of it and proved it numerous times.
Yes, but Euros are almost always white. Other people are not. To criticize non-white people is racist, bigoted, Islamophobic and so on and so on.
The Mongols, Muslim Arabs and Muslim Turks invaded and tried to conquer Europe but they were beaten back by the horrible white man.
"The Mongol Empire existed during the 13th and 14th centuries; it became the largest contiguous land empire in history. Wikipedia"
And don't forget certain African kingdoms without which the European slave trade would have been but a footnote.
There were plenty of large and successful African kingdoms that had nothing to do with the European slave trade, some even powerful enough to threaten colonial powers despite a significant disadvantage in military technology.
And yet another example of a successful non-Christian empire. China and India had well established empires with millions of subjects while Europeans were running around in the dirt or prosecuting anyone whose scientific discoveries conflicted with church teachings.
Overall, there are good and bad examples from every religion and cultural group. Anyone who feels that religion plays a role in these GTA shootings is either an idiot or pushing a racist agenda.
And the horrible white men invaded and tried to conquer the East but they were beaten back by the Muslim Arabs Turks, Mongols and other Asians. A process repeated many times between Alexander the Great and the Americans in Viet Nam.
Empires and civilizations are always ebbing and flowing, crumbling from within or being dismantled from without.
